Ramblings. Things. Words.

My company Fast Travel Games revealed our first title at Paris Games Week last week. Apex Construct is an action-adventure built from the ground up for VR. It’s getting released first on Playstation VR and then, a little later, on Oculus Rift, Vive & Microsoft Mixed Reality headsets.

Yep, it didn’t take long. We reunited the band in March this year and here’s our first piece of recorded music. We’ve been playing some gigs in Stockholm area and will continue to do so for as long as people want to see us play.

Moment 23

The album is seven songs and sixteen minutes long. It’s called Allting kommer tillbaka and I’m pretty proud of it. I’m also pretty sure we will record more songs soon.

I updated the Music page with links to the album on a number of outlets.

This review of my story in Waiting for the Machines to Fall Asleep on Strange Horizons makes me very happy. Responses like this is what makes it fun to write. It does spoil the story a bit, but I can live with that.

“Other stories rise to the top, such as “Getting to the End” by Erik Odeldahl, which depicts an ever-shifting cityscape that is part madness, part technological disaster. Not only is the premise fairly unique, but Odeldahl also allows us to get to know the characters before he expertly builds up to the eventual reveal that [REMOVED BECAUSE OF SPOILERS]. He also creates a world with its own rules: the characters use “anti-beat machines” that throw off grotesque monsters which track victims using rhythm and repetition. There’s a strong sense of place as the protagonist traverses the “Hole,” heading into the “Event Sector,” where some unknown force is constantly destroying and re-creating the environment.”

Reviews of Waiting for the Machines to Fall Asleep have begun to trickle in, and most of them are really positive. I like the book too. Several stories are very good and it shows the great breadth of sci-fi & speculative fiction in Sweden.
